In order to ensure a response to societal challenges in thematic areas, FCT has signed several collaboration protocols, which support advanced training in partnership with institutions that promote or are dedicated to scientific research and technological development, with the aim of funding research work in cycles leading to a doctoral degree.
The process of evaluation and selection of applications associated with these protocols is the responsibility of the protocoled entities and the contracting, management and funding of Studentships is the responsibility of FCT. The respective opening notices may be consulted on the EURAXESS Portal, as well as on the institutional pages of the protocoled entities.
These Calls run in a complementary way to the national Call of Studentships for Doctorates whose Notice of the Call of 2023 is already available.
